"Battalion commander!"

On this day, when I was busy observing the training of various parts of the synthetic battalion for the protection of artillery sighting radar, Lin Xia walked up to me.

"Oh! It's Lin Xia! I said, "How?" It's not too hard to translate! ”

"It's fine!" Lin Xia nodded.

Lin Xia's job was to temporarily equip the translator for us to fight in the Falklands, and it was supposed to return to her original unit after we returned from the Falklands after we completed the mission, but considering that our base would soon introduce artillery sighting radars from the United Kingdom, and the instructions for artillery sighting radars and the like were all in English, Commander Zhang simply left Lin Xia in the base to translate.

"What? Is there something wrong? Seeing Lin Xia standing next to her and wanting to stop talking, I couldn't help but ask a little strangely.

"Hmm!" Lin Xia nodded: "There is something...... But it's not a big deal, I'm afraid you're too busy......"

"Say it!" Seeing this, I couldn't help but laugh and said: "It doesn't matter if it's really not a big deal, I won't agree!" ”

"That's right!" Lin Xia hesitated and said: "You also know what my previous mentality was, in fact, this is not me alone, many of my classmates think like this!" ”

Hearing this, I couldn't help but nodded, of course I understand this, this may be the rebound of my country's too closed before, this rebound is especially obvious for students who have some knowledge and some ambitions...... For ordinary people, although we are now open to the outside world, there are not even a few TVs in a village, and they usually chat after tea, and it may be a few months before national events reach their ears.

But students are different. They will take the initiative to accept external information with some resources at their disposal...... Of course, most of the information they are able to receive is processed and not objective. So over time, they are naturally influenced by this information. This is what we often call "brainwashing".

Lin Xia is a living example, but he is only one of them.

"After I came back from the Falklands, my classmates and I got together once!" Lin Xia said with a slightly unhappy face: "They actually want to know what I really think about the British army. Of course, I can't say much for reasons of secrecy...... Actually, it's not that they want to hear, it's ......"

"I want to hear about democracy and freedom, right?"

"How do you know?" Lin Xia's face was full of shock.

I just smiled bitterly, not to mention the current era, even in the modern era of rapid economic development. There are still many young people who think that the world is sinful, and I am awake.

There is also a reason why I mention "economic development" here, and the reason why I think that in this era when the economy has not yet developed, there will be more people who admire the Western way, and the answer is obvious...... Many of them have a difficult life or many unsatisfactory things, and then as soon as they hear that all European and American countries are so rich, they are extremely psychologically unbalanced, and they are eager to copy the European and American models, simply thinking that as long as they copy this model, they will soon be able to live the same life as European and American countries.

To put it simply, it is the European and American model when China's economy is still extremely backward and the people are living in poverty. It is even more confusing, and in the modern era of rapid economic development, the people have personally felt the earth-shaking changes in the country in recent decades and the steady improvement of their living standards, so as long as there is a little thinking ability, everyone knows that the road China is taking is correct. Therefore, they will not be easily confused by the universal values of Europe and the United States, and even most people will find that it is nothing more than a beautiful lie after a deeper understanding of the universal values of Europe and the United States through the Internet and other means. Instead, they spontaneously became the vanguard of opposition to this universal value.

This is why there are so many "self-done fives" in modern times.

"I suppose you must have had a bad party!" I say.

"Hmm!" Lin Xia nodded: "I don't know if it's because I'm stupid or what." I told them what you told me, but they didn't listen. On the contrary, I feel that my position is not firm, and my view of the problem is not objective and comprehensive......"

I can understand this, people are like this, once they are identified, it is not easy to get them to change their opinions, and at every turn, those who hold different views will be labeled as "not objective" and "not comprehensive".

"Then what do you mean......" I asked Lin Xia.

"That's right!" Lin Xia said: "My classmates are curious about who made me change in just over a month, so I want to meet you. Of course, the reason why they asked for this is because I didn't tell you who you really are, I just said that you are a colleague of mine, and they thought you were just an ordinary soldier in the PLA army. ”

"You want me to talk to them?"

"Hmm!" Lin Xia nodded: "But I also know that the battalion commander is so busy...... Little things like this......"

Originally, I thought that this matter was just a trivial matter as Lin Xia said, but after thinking about it, I felt that this was not the case, and the problem of students in this era is that there are too many problems in this area and no one pays attention to and guides them correctly.

The country is busy with reform and opening up, the army is busy with modernization, and the public security is busy cracking down on all kinds of criminal activities...... All departments are busy, and students are naturally neglected.

On the other hand, Europe and the United States have taken advantage of the honeymoon period with China to step up the export of their so-called universal values to the younger generation in China, so more and more people are imperceptibly confused by such values.

After thinking about it, I said to Lin Xia: "You can arrange a time!" ”

"What?" Lin Xia almost didn't believe her ears: "Battalion commander...... Did you say yes? ”

"Hmm!" I nodded: "But it's better to be faster, the training is just on the right track, just have time, maybe it won't be after a while!" ”

"Okay, I'll get in touch right away!" Lin Xia turned around and left without saying a word.

Lin Xia's movements were also fast enough, and she contacted her classmates the next day.

The place where we met was a courtyard house. In order to match what Lin Xia said before, my identity is just an ordinary PLA soldier. So I and the two guards were commensurate as comrades-in-arms, while the jeep stopped at a long distance. Our group reached our destination on foot.

"Hello comrades of the People's Liberation Army!"

"Hello comrade!"

……

As soon as we walked into the courtyard, we were warmly welcomed by the students, and one of the leaders held my hand and said, "You are Comrade Yang, my name is Xu Jianfu, welcome to your arrival!" ”

"Oh!" I nodded at him, he was the president of the student union that Lin Xia said, and he looked polite.

"Come on...... Comrade, sit here! Xu Jianfu and several students beckoned us to sit down, and said while pouring tea for us: "Please bear with me, we students are all breezy with our sleeves." A few cups of tea can be entertained! ”

"It's okay!" I said, "The friendship between gentlemen is as light as water!" ”

"Oh!" Hearing this, Xu Jianfu and the others couldn't help but look at me in surprise: "I didn't expect Comrade Yang to be a scholar!" ”

"Hey!" I raised my head indifferently: "Where do we dare to call any scholar, it's just that when we were idle, I read a few more magazines and learned some idioms!" ”

"Comrade Yang is willing to shed his blood for the country, which is admirable!" Xu Jianfu said: "If we have time, we will listen to the deeds of Comrade Yang and other heroes in detail......

"I'm afraid that classmate Xu didn't come to listen to us talk about heroic deeds today!" I interrupted Xu Jianfu's words.

Students are like this, there is a lot of time to waste, so we always have to go around before getting into the topic, we are soldiers to have something to say, because if you are not in a hurry...... I'm afraid I won't be able to say anything.

"Hmm! What Comrade Yang said is true! Xu Jianfu smiled awkwardly and said, "I can't hide it." When we heard what Lin Xia said, we all felt very strange. First, it is strange what made Lin Xia have such a big change in thinking in a short period of time; The second is strange what Lin Xia passed on to us...... I think those words were said by Comrade Yang to Lin Xia! ”

After receiving my affirmation, Xu Jianfu continued: "So we wonder, how could Comrade Yang know so many things, and according to Lin Xia, Comrade Yang is just an ordinary PLA soldier!" ”

"I'll answer your questions one by one!" I said, "I think the reason why Lin Xia has changed so much in a short period of time. One is of course what I said, but the other ...... I think what is more important is that hearing is false, seeing is believing, and Comrade Lin Xia is actually in contact with the British army. It can be said that I feel the problems of some British, which is why there is such a big change! ”

Lin Xia, who was beside her, couldn't help but nodded.

As my translator, she did learn something in the process that was not as beautiful and fair as she imagined. For example, Britain seemed very fair in this war to demand a referendum on the Falklands...... Isn't this a blatant trick of power!

"As for the second question!" I said, "Just like this time we went to the Falklands as military advisers, we have also been to many countries. There are more places to go. Naturally, you know more! ”

Xu Jianfu nodded: "Although I know that Comrade Yang is well-informed, I am sorry, but we cannot agree with your views. For example, we believe that several different forces should be checked and balanced with each other, so as to make political views more transparent and better protect the rights and interests of the people. ”

"Maybe!" I say.

I'm playing with the trick again, and just like before, I didn't express strong opposition to students like Xu Jianfu who had long been prejudiced in their hearts from the beginning.

"What does Comrade Yang mean by 'maybe'?" Hearing this, Xu Jianfu couldn't help but ask in surprise, and there were other students around him who were also expressions like him.

"That's what I thought!" I said, "We have a saying in China that there is no absolute, that is to say, the world is diverse, and each country has its own different circumstances, so it is impossible for one system to be suitable for all countries." To put it simply, some countries are suitable and some countries are not! ”

"So which countries does Comrade Yang think is suitable?" Xu Jianfu asked.

"And there is no basis for what he says!" Another student interjected, "We haven't tried how to know if it's going to fit!" ”

"Let me answer this student's question first!" I replied with a smile: "First of all, we need to know that a national policy is not as simple as doing things as individuals. We can try to do things, and if we fail, it's a big deal to start all over again. But can the state? Especially since we are still a country with such a large population, the reason why the ship is difficult to turn around is very simple, so it is obviously irresponsible to the country and the people to speak like this.

Besides, although we have not tried, countries similar to ours have tried, such as India, which has a population that is not much different from ours, and although the land area is smaller than ours, the arable land area is more than ours, and the situation in India is enough to wake us up! ”

"But why doesn't Comrade Yang compare the United States and Britain?" Xu Jianfu retorted.

"That's all I'm going to answer your question!" I went on to say, "Which countries are suitable for a system of checks and balances between several different powers?" My personal opinion is this, Western countries have rarely been unified in history, a castle can be crowned king by spending some money to hire some knights, and these castles can not help each other, so they can only negotiate with each other and check and balance each other in order to survive, so they have a long history and experience in the balance of power. But what about our country? In the history of our country, reunification was made possible because of the high degree of military development, and after reunification, a problem will arise, that is, it is completely top-down management. If you think about it, we have grown up in this mode of management for thousands of years, and the people are not prepared for it, and all of a sudden, there is a big change in this model...... So what goes wrong? ”

Looking around at the students who had apparently not thought about this question, I continued: "And the facts seem to confirm this, let's find a few countries that have implemented this system, such as India and the Philippines, are they doing well?" The fact is exactly the opposite, several forces are fighting for the sake of fighting, the whole society is the world of the underworld, and the police openly ask for bribes on the streets...... As for Japan and South Korea, I also told Lin Xia before, they are not suitable as examples, because their countries still have American troops! (To be continued......)
